Slurry Prep Systems
Simplify media preparation and packing for DAC LC Columns

Slurry Prep Systems
With our lineup of 100 to 600 L Slurry Prep Systems (SPS), you can now slurry, de-fine and charge your chromatography media in a closed mixing unit that easily integrates with your large diameter DAC LC Column.
Compatible with Flash, MPLC and HPLC DAC Columns
Thoughtful Design
The multi-function design of the SPS permits slurry to be mixed, de-fined, recirculated and charged into DAC LC Columns. The unit is also fully non-electrical, allowing seamless installation into hazardous areas without additional costs for electrical protection or controls validation.
Standard features include:
- Electropolished 316L SS mixing vessel
- Pneumatic control panel and liquid control panel for manual operation
- Agitator with speed control
- Sidewall sight glass for monitoring slurry level
- Integral decanting dip tube for de-fining
- Slurry transfer pump with speed control
- De-fine, Reslurry, Recirculate and Charge modes
- ASME code stamp (for US installations)
- CE Pressure Equipment Directive compliant (for EU installations)

Prepare for Column Packing in 7 Easy Steps
- Fill SPS vessel with slurry buffer as recommended by the media manufacturer
- Add media from your supplier’s containers
- Gently mix the media into a slurry with the agitator
- Allow the media to briefly settle in the vessel for de-fining
- Decant fines from the supernatant; repeat steps 4 and 5 as necessary
- Add more slurry buffer and recirculate vessel to reslurry media
- Connect to your empty column and charge the slurry using the slurry transfer pump
